Section 1: Getting Started
Installing the SIM Card
This section explains how to start using your phone by first
configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then
setting up your voice mail.
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with
a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as
your PIN, available optional services, and many others features.
Setting Up Your Phone
Prior to use it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into
their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD™ card
slot is also located in this same internal area.
1.
Important!: The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts can be easily
damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling,
inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach
of small children.
Remove the battery cover by pressing down and
pushing upward (1).
2.
䊳
Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket (as shown
below) until the card locks into place.
Lift the cover up and off the phone (2).
• Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the phone and
that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.
1
Note: If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone does not detect the SIM
card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.
Note: The Samsung a697 has been tested to support up to a 16GB memory
card.
Installing the Memory Card
Installing the Battery

Your phone also supports the use of a memory card (microSD™)
for data storage of such things as data, music, pictures, and
video files. This type of memory card is designed for use with this

Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging,

time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.
Using the Travel Adapter
1.
With the battery installed, temporarily remove the plastic
cover (top right of phone).
Important!: Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connection. If
the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is
connected, the handset may power off and on continuously,
preventing proper operation.
Note: Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the
phone.
Charging a Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The
Travel Adapter that is used to charge the battery, is included with
your phone. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser
use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby
times.

Section 5: Entering Text
This section outlines how to select the desired text entry mode
when entering characters using the QWERTY keyboard-style
